A Turtle That Was Hidden (TMNT Book 2)

Back and Forth (Different POV)

(MIKITO’S POV)

Turns out the Purple Dragon retreated into a warehouse. Sophie, Mikey, Donnie, and I waited on the roof and glanced inside. Dogpound roamed around toward the Dragon. They exchanged words and then Dogpound took the phone and set it on a desk.

“Great,” Donnie sighed. “Dogpound’s in there.”

“And us four are no match for him.” Sophie said. “Heck, seven of us were barely a match for him.”

“Does Naomi count?” Mikey asked.

“I did say seven.” Sophie sighed.

“Would you guys hush?” Donnie snapped. “We need a plan.”

“Great,” I muttered. “Sound like Leo why don’t you?”

“We need a distraction to grab the phone and without getting caught.”

Sophie leaned back against the building edge, sitting on the ground and waiting for some hard thinking from Donnie, “This should take awhile.”

I looked at Sophie before at Donnie again as he began explaining things a little too much, “We could make them think the cops are here.”

“Operation Cop Out!” Mikey announced.

Donnie ignored him and continued, “We’ll need a blow horn, and flashing lights.”

“Got any of those in your lab?” Sophie asked.

Again, Donnie ignored everyone and continued, “Or we could think that there’s a fire in the building.”

“Operation Fire Out!” Mikey said again.

“We’d need a red light.” Donnie thought. “Or we could just cut the power.”

“Operation Black Out! No, Power Out! No, Lights Out!” Mikey fell to the ground. “This one is too good to be named!”

“Geez.” I breathed as I helped Mikey back up. “You think the others are doing fine?”

(LEO’S POV)

Well, it was smart to go and find out where those robots were coming from because when we emerged, we ran into, “Baxter Stockboy?” I asked.

“It’s Baxter Stockman!” he replied with a sigh.

“He was close.” Naomi said.

“What are you doing here?” Baxter asked.

“We followed your happy-go-lucky robots.” Naomi replied, getting out her staff. She can be a little of a pain sometimes, but I know she means well. Just like Raph… Sometimes.

“My Mousers?” Baxter asked.

“Mousers?” Raph repeated.

“Multiple Observation Underground Search Ever Retrieval Sentries.” he explained. Actually, I’m not a hundred percent sure he said that because all I remember is the “Sentries” part… Just about as confusing as Donnie.

“Riiight.” Raph said. “Well it’s time we’re going to hurt you very, very much.”

Naomi twirled her staff and I got out my swords. We each ran at him but then he took a canister out, spraying us with a red substance.

“Don’t breathe it in!” I ordered. “Poison gas!”

“It is not!” Naomi snapped.

We looked at each other, and we were still breathing, so we took another charge, but then some of those Mousers came at us again. Quickly, we destroyed them all.
